It is titled: "Shock waves and steam heat"
>>
For more than two years debate has raged on the Internet about an
ordinary-looking metal drum sitting on the concrete floor of a factory
building in Rome, Georgia, 50 miles from Atlanta. Its inventor, the man about
whom the Internet debate is raging, is James Griggs, an industrial heating
engineer.
The invention that has brought Griggs such notoriety is a device that he
began developing in 1987, that he calls the 'Hydrosonic Pump' and that many
of his supporters believe is over-unity, in that it generates around 30 per
cent more energy as heat than is put in as electricity.
<<
Apparently it works well enough that it has been installed in various local
government buildings in or around his home town.
>>
In a second test, during which the over-unity effect was measured, the
adjusted co-efficient of power was a remarkable 168 per cent -- the machine
produced 1.68 times the energy that was input. A third test did nearly as
well with a Co-efficient of power of 157 per cent.
If the only evidence for these claims were the colour brochure printed by
Griggs's company, Hydro Dynamics Corporation Inc., and reports of his
supporters, then most observers might be inclined to side with the skeptics:
Griggs's claims seem fundamentally improbable. Yet surprisingly, Griggs has
not only patented his device and started manufacturing a commercial version
on a small scale, he has also sold and installed devices to users in the
Atlanta area.
The customers include the Atlanta Police Department, a fire station, a dry
cleaning plant, and a gymnasium. Interestingly, the Hydrosonic pump was
installed in the public buildings by the county engineer after evaluating the
device. The buildings are using the device mainly for heating purposes, and
they have been running for more than a year. The customers have bills from
their local electric utility company showing a year on year decrease in bills
equivalent to 30 per cent.

Anyone seen any other info on this device/process?
